Extreme skier Gary Fondl of Frisco gets a November backcountry ski day in after hiking high along in the Continental Divide near the Summit county line but skiing the Clear Creek County side on Wednesday afternoon. Conditions were thin but still good with a little powder to be found in just the right places for this early in the season. Fondl is a team athlete for Ski Logik, a custom Colorado ski company based in Breckenridge, and also represents Hestra gloves and Dalbella boots.
